When I held fast to my Arminian views, I felt very responsable and determind to proclaim the Gospel and premote Christian service and action.

So did I. And I still feel that way. Being a Calvinist does not diminish our Lord's command to go and preach to all the nations. Yes, God must regenerate the heart of the sinner before he can be saved. Yes, God has predetermined who will be saved and who will not be saved. But that is not any excuse for laziness on our part. There are lots of wrong ways to evangelize, however. Holding up John 3:16 at a football game or "dive bombing for Jesus" are just a couple of those.

I recommend you read Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God by J. I. Packer, as well as Tell the Truth by Will Metzger.

Also, there are some very good articles here on the Highway. Go here and click on the button labelled Evangelism.

True godliness is a sincere feeling which loves God as Father as much as it fears and reverences Him as Lord, embraces His righteousness, and dreads offending Him worse than death~ Calvin
